More money than I could ever use. I could be set for life with 1 million. The things that could be done with that amount would set many people for life. Sadly I bet the person that wins would be greedy and use it all for self. One could only hope they would use it to do good.

The odds of winning are the same.

People tend to favor certain numbers (birthdays, anniversaries, sports numbers...) so while picking your own numbers gives you the same odds to win, it can increase the odds that you will have the same numbers as someone else and split the prize.

I saw someone on TV who has won like 10 times and he said no quick picks. Always play your same numbers. I have not bought lottery tickets in years.

Like a fisherman I know says, "You have to go to know".... you have to play to have a chance.

IT doesn't matter. Picking your own numbers doesn't increase your chance of winning whatsoever. It's 100% pure luck, nothing else.

I hear it's up to $540M now.

I got 2 tickets and the office pool now. The guy at the bodega told me the system has been running slow all day due to everyone buying Megamillions tickets in NY state.

I'm gonna waste $1 today when I get my sandwich, bottle of Coke, some shitty beef jerky, a pack of skittles, a bag of potato chips and... whatever else draws my attention. I don't think I've ever bought a lotto ticket before, but hey, like an article I just read about it said, at those odds its just fate. Buy a ticket and see if you're destined to win the lottery.

Given what else I'm buying, I won't even notice the dollar missing.

15 minutes before the drawing

When are the drawings held?

The Mega Millions drawing will be held Friday from Atlanta at 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time, 10:00 p.m. Central Time, 8:00 p.m. Pacific Time.

What's the latest I can buy a Mega Millions ticket?

If you're a last minute kind of person - even with more than a half-a-billion on the line - not to worry. You can buy tickets up to 15 minutes before the drawing. (10:45 p.m. Eastern Time, 9:45 p.m. Central Time, 7:45 p.m. Pacific Time) Except if you live in Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont, where 9:50 p.m. is the deadline.

Of course I would imagine there will be lines and if you don't make the deadline you are SOL.

When I win it will be interesting to see how many other Outposters I'll be sharing it with. I may go buy a second set of those same numbers so I get two for one of the winnings.

The lottery places are all packed all day. Someone told me that over $1million is being spent on lottery tickets in NYC... every hour.

Now I'm up to 5 tickets and the office pool.

I got 25 of my own and the guys from my work combined as a team we have 250ish. I know some people that did a pool for 100 each. They have like 600 or so.

I bought one ticket and I'm excited! I can't for the life of me figure out why, I know I'm not going to win, and I know Mastboro isn't going to win if he bought 6,000 tickets. Owell... enjoying it while it lasts.

Currently at 640 with a cash payout around 462, so the 700 mark isn't that hard to believe in the next 6 hours.

Good luck ya'll!

Is that 462 assuming only one winner and nobody will get 5 out of 6 and 4 out of 6, etc...

The cash payout is not affected by any number of winners of smaller prize amounts.

It is affected with multiple winners of the jackpot, but as Koneg states, it's not affected by any of the lower payouts.

My wife bought some.

It is fun to fantasize about winning.

Nothing wrong with buying a few.

If we win we are going into hiding.

Could you imagine what people would try to do if they knew you had that much money?

I am going to join some militia in Idaho and hide out for a bit.

silly

i love what $1 can do to you mentally.

what a trip.

by the way, spending $1 vs $1000 changes your odds of winning very little.
so long as it is non-zero i am happy.

i can't wait to buy a real life Rainbow Unicorn!

We've got family coming to town to visit for a week. I bought 7 tickets. We'll check one per day for the whole week they're here. That way the kids will have a fun little something to look forward to each morning.

The entire value is in the fantasizing and anticipation.

Don't check the numbers right away. Once you do the value is all gone.
